hoop dreams
First blog post! I've been thinking about forcing myself to go somewhere new everyday, or see or do something new everyday, and then record it in a blog. Kait's 40 days of awesomeness inspired me to actually start.
Today was definitely awesome. A perfect fall day: 69 degrees and sunny, leaves just starting to turn.
Dave made a top 100 songs list the other day and included Late by Ben Folds. It's Ben Folds' tribute to Elliot Smith. I love the verse: Elliot, man, you played a mean guitar/ and some dirty basketball/ the songs you wrote/ got me through a lot/ just want to tell you that.
Today after breakfast I asked Logan if he'd teach me how to play basketball. I meant sometime eventually in the future, but he said "sure, let's go." So went to Fred Meyer and bought a basketball and went to the park. I have NEVER played basketball before.
We went to the courts and I lobbed a basketball around (throwing it from behind my shoulder, mostly, and grunting everytime just to get it four feet in the air.) Awesome!
